Power Supply
The Aruba 7010 controller is equipped with an integrated AC power supply of 225W. The integrated power supply
supports 75W of system power and 150W of PoE power.
PoE
The 7010 controller supports PoE (802.3af) and PoE+ (802.3at) to provide power to connected devices. PoE/PoE+ is
enabled by default to provide plug and play capability for PoE capable devices. The 7010 controller supports PoE
management in Dynamic mode.
In dynamic mode, the per port power budgeted from the total power supplied from the PSUs is equal the amount of
power consumed by the port.
Grounding Point
To meet safety and electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements and to ensure proper operation, the controller
must be adequately grounded before power is connected. Connect a grounding cable to earth ground and then
attach it to the chassis grounding point using two screws.
Comply with electrical grounding standards during all phases of installation and operation of the product. Do not
allow the controller’s chassis, network ports, power supply, or mounting brackets to contact any device, cable, object,
or person attached to a different electrical ground. Also, never connect the device to external storm grounding
sources.
SFP Modules
SFP Modules, also known as mini-GBICs, are hot-swappable Gigabit Ethernet transceivers that provide optical or
copper connections to other devices.
!
CAUTION
Do not connect the Console port to an Ethernet switch or a PoE power source. This may damage the controller.
Aruba tests and supports Aruba approved optics within their controller devices. Non-approved third party
optics are not tested or supported; therefore, Aruba does not guarantee proper functionality of non-approved
third party optics when used in an Aruba system. For a complete list of Aruba approved optics, contact your
Aruba sales representative.
